CulturEvolution Camp happens August 20-29, 2010 in Floyd, VA
Join a dynamic and experimental group of social pioneers as we embrace the opportunity to be the change that facilitates personal and global breakthrough.
We are all aware that the world is at a momentous tipping point at which global ecology and culture will either break down or break through. At points like these, small groups can have influence far beyond their size. There are no ready recipes for building new ways of living‹the inner and outer devastation of the planet and its peoples has become far too pervasive, and the challenges far too complex. Yet, we must take responsibility for our future‹for ourselves, for the Earth, and for the future generations of all beings.
At CulturEvolution Summer Camp, we’ll embark on a 10-day experiment in creating a space for breakthrough in our individual, social, and potentially global dynamics. Through creative group endeavors, we’ll be exploring
- Our intrinsic connection to the entire web of life–how to better understand and augment the symbiotic connections among all beings. How can we align our actions to support both ecological and social sustainability?
- Creativity as “community glue.” Using art, music, and theater, we’ll dive into the depths of our primal beings and our creative source, and from these depths bring into being the world we want to evolve into.
- The nature of love, Eros, and conscious human relationships. What do we need to create true connection, within ourselves and with others? What skills do we need to build in order to make relationship choices out of love and joy, rather than fear? How can we liberate love? How do we end the cycle of violence to women, other races, and each other by starting with ourselves?
Our intent for Summer Camp is not merely about co-creating a fun, interesting, heartfelt group experience, but also to leave folks with clear direction, skills, hope, and connections for further transformation. Whether your focus is ecological sustainability, permaculture, community, conscious relationships, alternative economics, spirituality, and/or creating peace, we hope that CulturEvolution camp can be a springboard for your work in the world.
